Four blue domes cap the cathedral of this striking, walled-in Russian monastery dating back to the 12th century.
Reviewed By 30vladimirr - Moscow, Russia
St. George's Monastery is located on the outskirts of Veliky Novgorod, where the Volkhov River flows into Lake Ilmen. On the territory of the monastery, there is a large St. George Cathedral, until the Mongol period. Huge, powerful, majestic. This is the first cathedral, about which the chronicle says: it was built by master Peter. As I wrote earlier, in such places, you are surprised how such a thing could have been built in those years. On the territory of the monastery, you are in peace, letting go of all the problems that you had in life, enjoying the silence and architecture of the monastery. I highly recommend visiting.
